Clarence Ashley - I'm the Man That Rode the Mule Around the World lyrics

I'm a highly educated man And to put my brain within I have to plan I've been on earth so long That I used to Sing a song When Abraham and Isaac rushed the can I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I rode in Noah's ark just as happy as a lark I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I was there when Noah built that famous ark And I sneaked in it one night when it was dark I saw Jonah swallow the whale and I pulled the lion's tail And I crossed the land of Canaan on a lark I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I rode in Noah's ark just as happy as a lark I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I was there when they searched tlie garden o'er When they driv Adam and Eve from the door 'Round the bushes I were peeping while the apple they were eating I can prove that I'm the guy that eat the core I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I'm the man that rode the mule around the world I rode in Noah's ark just as happy as a lark I'm the man that rode the mule around the world
